untitled

I'm all dolled up. My hair is long,
and I'm a slut - but just for you.
I sing the songs of all the swans

beneath a tree with gnarled roots.
The birds nest gentle in my hair,
I fold myself in solitude.

But when I look up, you are there.
You take my hand and we walk home.
I used t o quake when I was scared

that you would leave me all alone.
The northern star, I wished upon
that you would keep me as your own.

We had a secret all along -
we fuck without a condom on.
